Suppose a mother of three born children plus an unborn child of eight-week's gestation was found to have metasticizing cancer. Doctor's prognosis was that chemo may save her if issued immediately, but it would be unlikely the woman would live six months otherwise.

My husband's best friend's mother was in exactly this position when she was pregnant with him. She chose to have him and not treat the cancer. She did die when he was almost a year old, not of cancer, though (her 'hopeless' cancer went into remission), she was murdered by the son of a diplomat who had immunity.

I have to get up early. Ya'll hold the fort. I dont know what to feel right now except that it is in God's hand and the 11th circuit. I trust the former and hope the latter rises above being lawyerly nad acts human.

Good Nite all! Tomorrow is a big day or a terrible day.
